I think the suggested way is to remove all flower heads after flowering, allow to die back naturally in situ (perhaps even giving it a feed but I'm never good at remembering feeding), then dig up and store somewhere dry and frost free, then replant for the next year.

That being said, I never bother and they tend to come back  :D
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

What do I do with these bulbs?
